Joan Smith

Joan gained her heavenly angel wings on Monday April 8, 2019. She was born in Louisville, KY to Frank B, Cain and Martha Alice Randall Cain. Joan met the love of her life in 1948, Donald Smith, and married in November 1949. Their’s was a true love story like no other and endured 70 years before her passing. Don and Joan moved to Ft. Wayne, Ind and were blessed with 2 daughters, Sandra Lynn and Janet Sue. In 1969 the family moved to Clearwater, FL, and have called Pinellas County their home for 50 years. Joan worked as a travel agent for many years before changing professions to Real Estate in the local area. She will be best remembered by her loving family and friends for her kindness, generosity, spunkiness, and her love of God. A truly beautiful soul that was the life of any party, and so compassionate to all others. Always lending a helping hand to anyone in need. God blessed our family with the best wife, mother, grandmother, sister, and daughter when he gave us Joan. A true angel on earth and now in heaven. She was predeceased by her mother, father, sister ( Laura ). She is survived by her beloved husband, Don, daughters, Sandra and Janet, Grandchildren Danielle and Jeremy, Great grandchildren Kinsley and Cameron, brother, Frank Cain, along with many nieces, nephews, and friends. The family wishes to Thank the Green team at the Suncoast Hospice for their many months of loving care. The Green team made it possible for our family to give our dear Wife and Mother her dream of being able to live out her days in her home that she loved. In lieu of flowers, any contribution to the Florida Suncoast Hospice would be greatly appreciated. The family will hold a celebration of Joan’s life at a later date at the home she loved on Lake Tarpon.
